         F                    G
So I walk alone down the dark - est roads

              Dm                       C
Cause I've al - ways known how the sto - ry goes

             F                          G
When the cur - tain falls, I'll be wear - ing thin

         Dm                          C
Clawing at the walls as they're clos - ing in
[Verse 2]
              F                   G
In this twist - ed plot I was des - tined for

         Dm                  C
I'm an as - tronaut on the o - cean floor

         F                         G
So misun - derstood 'till the bloo - dy end

          Dm                  C      Am*  F*
How I wish   I could do it all again
[Chorus]
C                    G
 It feels like I'm a lone survivor

Am               G
  Forgotten in a dark and deadly world

C             G
 And on my own, I walk alone

Am                    F
  To see the sun again I'd give anything

C                   G
 But life demands a final chapter

Am                G
  A story that we all must leave behind

C              G
 It's do or die, and this is mine

Am                    F
  The anthem of a bird with a broken wing
[Instrumental] C G Am F [Verse 3]
        F                       G
It's an - other night of the li - ving dead

          Dm                  C
Like a vi - per bite in a spi - derweb

              F                   G
It's so death - ly dark in the al - leyway

           Dm                        C
And a blee - ding heart makes you ea - sy prey
[Verse 4]
          F                     G
I would run and hide for the af - ternoon

             Dm                 C
With the but - terfly in the pa - nic room

             F                       G
Though I won't be missed, I would say it's time

          Dm                        C        Am* F*
For a dif - ferent twist in the sto - ry line
